Here is video of Glenn Beck today talking with Britain's James Delingpole, author of Welcome to Obamaland: I've seen your future and it doesn't work (interview begins at 3:50 mark of first video).

Delingpole was a fascinating guest, who really does speak as one who has seen firsthand the socialistic society Obama hopes to build here in the United States. His descriptions of where the nanny-state mentality has taken Great Britain is truly a glimpse into America's future if we don't prevent the Democrats from implementing their plans.

Delingpole said the thing that will really destroy America is "Cap and Trade," because it will give government so much control over the economy and everyday life. He gave an example that in Britain, they have 2 million trash cans outfitted with special sensors that weigh how much trash a family disposes of and then charges them for it.

About Freedom's Lighthouse

Freedom's Lighthouse is dedicated to being a blog of record for the political history of the United States of America. The United States is "Freedom's Lighthouse" in a world where the light of freedom is not found in many places. We will record that history - past and present - with a great emphasis on video, and will also mix in some of the nation's top sports and cultural news. In all we do we will seek to uphold the conservative principles that have made America "Freedom's Lighthouse."
